Could not launch intent Intent Espresso again

I am testing with the Espresso framework but keep getting the following error:

`java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not launch intent Intent { act=android.intent.action.MAIN flg=0x14000000 cmp=aurora.aero.inflightmanager.dds/aurora.aero.inflightmanager.home.HomeActivity } within 45 seconds. Perhaps the main thread has not gone idle within a reasonable amount of time? There could be an animation or something constantly repainting the screen. Or the activity is doing network calls on creation? See the threaddump logs. For your reference the last time the event queue was idle before your activity launch request was 1501794260595 and now the last time the queue went idle was: 1501794260664. If these numbers are the same your activity might be hogging the event queue. at android.support.test.runner.MonitoringInstrumentation.startActivitySync(MonitoringInstrumentation.java:360) at android.support.test.rule.ActivityTestRule.launchActivity(ActivityTestRule.java:219) at android.support.test.rule.ActivityTestRule$ActivityStatement.evaluate(ActivityTestRule.java:268) at org.junit.rules.RunRules.evaluate(RunRules.java:20) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.runLeaf(ParentRunner.java:325) at org.junit.runners.BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.runChild(BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.java:78) at org.junit.runners.BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.runChild(BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.java:57) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$3.run(ParentRunner.java:290) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$1.schedule(ParentRunner.java:71) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.runChildren(ParentRunner.java:288) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.access$000(ParentRunner.java:58) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$2.evaluate(ParentRunner.java:268) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.run(ParentRunner.java:363) at org.junit.runners.Suite.runChild(Suite.java:128) at org.junit.runners.Suite.runChild(Suite.java:27) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$3.run(ParentRunner.java:290) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$1.schedule(ParentRunner.java:71) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.runChildren(ParentRunner.java:288) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.access$000(ParentRunner.java:58) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$2.evaluate(ParentRunner.java:268) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.run(ParentRunner.java:363) at org.junit.runner.JUnitCore.run(JUnitCore.java:137) at org.junit.runner.JUnitCore.run(JUnitCore.java:115) at android.support.test.internal.runner.TestExecutor.execute(TestExecutor.java:59) at android.support.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner.onStart(AndroidJUnitRunner.java:262) at android.app.Instrumentation$InstrumentationThread.run(Instrumentation.java:1873)

Tests ran to completion. `

My build.gradle is as follows:

` androidTestCompile(‘com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:2.2.2’, { exclude group: ‘com.android.support’, module: ‘support-annotations’ exclude group: ‘com.android.support’, module: ‘appcompat’ exclude group: ‘com.android.support’, module: ‘support-v4’ exclude group: ‘recyclerview-v7’ exclude group: ‘com.google.guava:guava:19.0’

})`

I have looked at both #56 and #15 and I have excluded every dependency in my production APK from my test APK. I’m still getting the same error. The strange thing is that sometimes it randomly works and the test will pass, but for the most part I get the same error, any ideas?

any solutions?

Please try with ActivityScenarioRule instead of ActivityTestRule like below

@Rule 
public ActivityScenarioRule<LoginActivity> mActivityRule = new ActivityScenarioRule<>(LoginActivity.class);

Turn on background popup permissions. It’s work for me
